Indian Mound 2|Lucas' Hiding Place in Go Down, Moses (Location)
Biography: 

The archaeologists, "a group of white men, including two women," descend on the Indian mound in "The Fire and the Hearth" to study the ways of the "old people." Most of them are bespectacled and all are dressed in "khaki clothes which had patently lain folded on a store shelf twenty-four hours ago" (37).

Note: 
To calculate Roth's birth year, I added Lucas' age in "The Fire and the Hearth" to his birthdate in 1874 ((33): 1874+67=1941; then I subtracted Roth's age in the chapter (114): 1941-43=1898. The text says he was born in March (45)--TMT
